Midrange BlackBerry Leap Now Available In The U.S. For $275

Back at MWC, BlackBerry announced a new "all-touch" smartphone called the BlackBerry Leap, which was targeting mainly the mid range of the market with a $275 price tag. The device is now shipping in the U.S. and UK, and it will ship tomorrow to France and Germany, as well.

The BlackBerry Leap comes with the latest BlackBerry 10.3.1 OS and a Snapdragon S4 Plus processor, which is rather dated even for today's mid-range processors, such as the 64-bit Cortex-A53-based chips. The device has a 5.0" screen and only a 720p resolution.
